[how to raise pineapple] the culture method of pineapple

If you have ever seen pineapple, you must know the origin of its name, as you can see, its petals are very similar to the leaves of pineapple, and its flowers are gorgeous and fascinating. Leaving its appearance, it can also purify the indoor air, make the home full of green vitality and achieve its fancy language-perfection. Of course, such a good flower is also easy to raise, so let's introduce the culture method of pineapple.

I. Culture methods of pineapple flowers

The key point of pineapple culture-- moisture

Water is the source of life and the key to development. The pH value of the water preferred by the pineapple flower is 5.5 Mel 6.5, which is most conducive to the absorption of nutrients and can reduce the pressure on the outside world. So the most ideal is to use Rain Water to irrigate the ideal irrigation, if there is no lake water and surface water to irrigate is also good. If there are conditions, you can buy a spray bottle, which will not only help the bottom of the flowerpot without stagnant water, but also reduce the indoor temperature.

The key point of pineapple culture-- light

Pineapple is an indoor plant that likes shade and is not suitable for direct sunlight, but it also needs sunlight. According to traditional farming experience, three hours a day is the best. It goes without saying in spring and autumn, but it is worth noting that there must be no direct sunlight in summer, and the temperature in winter must be higher than 10 °and lower than 20 °, which is conducive to the rest of the plant and will not affect the growth of the next year.

The key point of pineapple culture-- fertilization

Pineapple was originally a parasitic plant, its root system will not be very developed, there is no main root, only a delicate root system, so do not add too much fertilizer in the basin, which is the main reason why many people say that the leaves are yellow and the roots rot in culture. It is recommended to plant in small or shallow pots and connect some of its roots with thick air. the soil is rotten leaves with a little pastoral soil or half-mixed with peat and perlite.

II. Matters needing attention in pineapple culture

Pineapple plants propagate transmission sets, or cubs. A mature plant in the natural growth cycle will send a spike of flowers, including small and sometimes insignificant flowers, surrounded by showy bracts (it is true that people like the bracts of pineapple). Floral bracts are often persistent, sometimes for months. After anthesis dies, plants begin to die, and in the coming months, they will decline. However, the mother's factory will send one or more smaller cubs at the base's factory. These cubs can be carefully cut off alone with sterile snippers and potted plants. The puppies should only be potted after they developed several roots and began to form central cup characteristics of pineapple flowers.

Pineapple is native to the tropics and is afraid of the cold, so the temperature should reach more than 5 ℃ in winter, so as to avoid pathological changes. Because the original state of the pineapple itself is parasitic in the tropical rain forest, so the need for sunlight is not too high, but more sunlight, but also lead to yellow leaves, flower tips dry and so on. Therefore, the place where the pineapple flowers are placed had better be in a semi-overcast and ventilated place to prevent the exposure of the hot sun.

The conditions for raising pineapple flowers also need water. Generally speaking, we breed pineapple flowers in pots at home, so the potted soil of pineapple flowers keeps the surface slightly dry and can not be too wet. If it is more than wet, it will easily soak the roots. How to keep this moisture? There is a leaf tube at the root of the pineapple leaf, and there is a sink in the leaf tube, as long as there is water in the sink. But the water inside had better be changed every half a month so as not to stink. Usually sprinkle some water on the flowers and leaves.

Third, the reasons for the yellowing of pineapple leaves

1. Improper fertilization

The flowering period of Hongyun is in winter, and sufficient fertilizer is required during flowering. Thin organic liquid fertilizers such as bean cake and sesame sauce dregs are usually applied every two weeks (with a suitable concentration of 20%). Soya bean soaking solution or fermented rice washing water can also be used.

When fertilization is insufficient, there will be a lack of nitrogen and other nutrients in the basin, resulting in thin branches and leaves, thin and yellow leaves. It is necessary to pour the pot in time and gradually apply rarefied mature liquid fertilizer or compound flower fertilizer into new loose and fertile culture soil. If the fertilizer is too much, the new leaves will be thick and uneven, and the old leaves will fall off. At this time, we should immediately stop fertilization, increase the amount of water, make fertilizer flow out of the drainage hole at the bottom of the basin, or immediately pour the basin, rinse the mound with water and then plant it again into the basin.

2. The illumination is not up to standard.

To make the leaves bright and blossom regularly, light is very important. In winter, there should be at least 4 to 5 hours of direct sunlight every day. In case of cloudy and rainy days, lights can be used to increase the light. In summer, the seedling pot should be placed in the shade, and indoor cultivation can also be set up as a shade net.

3. Soil quality

Good luck is suitable for the growth of loose, fertile and humus soil. In family cultivation, peat soil can be mixed with 2 parts of peat soil and 1 part of fine sand to prepare culture soil. Generally, the soil bought from the flower market is suitable for plant growth. When you add soil to it later, you should pay attention to the soil quality.

4. Improper prevention and control of diseases and insect pests

Good luck in the temperature or humidity is too high, poor ventilation in the environment, prone to disease and insect damage, at this time, the leaves are also prone to yellowing or curling signs. However, if the concentration of pesticides is too high in the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, or it is polluted by toxic gases in the atmosphere, or cold water is suddenly irrigated when the temperature is high, it is easy to cause the leaf tip or leaf surface to turn yellow and scorch, or even the whole plant to die. Therefore, we should pay attention to the rational use of pesticides and try to eliminate air pollution sources.

In fact, the culture method of pineapple is so simple, as long as you do these points, you can raise your own lovely flowers, which are not only beautiful but also purify the indoor air. Let's give it a try.
